“Our Lord! Indeed You will gather all mankind for a Day about which there is no doubt"; INDEED ALLAH'S PROMISE DOESN'T CHANGE. 3/9

"And if there was any qur'an by which the mountains would be removed or the earth would be broken apart or the dead would be made to speak, [it would be this Qur'an], but to Allah belongs the affair entirely. Then have those who believed not accepted that had Allah willed, He would have guided the people, all of them? And those who disbelieve do not cease to be struck, for what they have done, by calamity - or it will descend near their home - until there comes the promise of Allah . Indeed, ALLAH DOES NOT FAIL IN (HIS) PROMISE."

Until Muslims remove these offensive and dangerous 'orders' from the Quran the world will forever have strife. This must come from within since they cannot be forced to change, no one can. However the world should disregard Islam as a religion until it is corrected as one without such violence corrupting it. Being 'political correct' with regards to western civilization allowing Islam to be a religion must stop until they can prove themselves to be at peace. Merry Christmas to all.

Jesus told his disciples to put away the sword for his kingdom is a spiritual one. He also said to love one another and this included those that didn't believe in Him. Even if you believe Jesus is a fairy tale - the principle of love is still good. Muhammed used the sword all the time. Islam - submit or be killed or be a second class citizen. Please look at these two leaders - which one would you prefer ? Ideas really matter - the consequences are playing out more and more ... Read the New Testament vs the Koran - you couldn't get more of a contrast.
